scan() method, causing Timeout Exception in query

                 Key: CASSANDRA-2401
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-2401
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 0.7.4
         Environment: Hector 0.7.0-28, Cassandra 0.7.4, Windows 7, Eclipse
            Reporter: Tey Kar Shiang


ColumnFamilyStore.java, line near 1680, "ColumnFamily data = 
getColumnFamily(new QueryFilter(dk, path, firstFilter))", the data is returned 
null, causing NULL exception in "satisfies(data, clause, primary)" which is not 
captured. The callback got timeout and return a Timeout exception to Hector.

The data is empty, as I traced, I have the the columns Count as 0 in 
removeDeletedCF(), which return the null there. (I am new and trying to 
understand the logics around still). Instead of crash to NULL, could we bypass 
the data?

About my test:
A stress-test program to add, modify and delete data to keyspace. I have 30 
threads simulate concurrent users to perform the actions above, and do a query 
to all rows periodically. I have Column Family with rows (as File) and columns 
as index (e.g. userID, fileType).

No issue on the first day of test, and stopped for 3 days. I restart the test 
on 4th day, 1 of the users failed to query the files (timeout exception 
received). Most of the users are still okay with the query.
